“Tucker did a great job watching Zoe & Mocha - regularly sent photos, provided updates from each visit, and was very communicative in providing care.”
“We are very pleased with Steph and her long weekend stay with our pup. We received timely updates and lots of photos! She handled eye drops for our dog that she needs daily, and left our house is pristine condition. Our dog was happy and well cared for while we were gone. We will most definitely use Steph again in the future!”
“Anik was an amazing cat sitter! Excellent communication, genuine care, and incredible attention to detail throughout the entire stay. The cats received so much love and attention. Anik went above and beyond, including taking the time to train French Fry to run on the wheel! That extra effort and patience really showed how much Anik cared about making the cats happy and comfortable. We would definitely book with Anik for future care.”
“Emma was extremely helpful and took great care of the house and our kitten. The pictures she sent were greatly appreciated. We felt very comfortable with our home in her care.”
“Excellent, kind, considerate dog sitter. Briana sent us pictures daily of our dog, she walked him extensively and also helped to work on some training with him. Briana knew how to handle our dog who has some reactivity and anxiety. She was respectful of our home, prompt and great with communication and care !”
“Sophie was great with our Brittany and Lab. We had to book something last minute and she responded right away with her availability. Showed up on time and gave good updates with pictures of how the night was going with the dogs. We have a Brittany that has horrible separation anxiety. She did very well with Sophie after only meeting her for 5 minutes before we had to leave. I would recommend her to anyone needing a good dog sitter.”
About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and horses, and have experience in oral med administration with both cats and dogs. I have a soft spot for the big dogs (they're lap-sized if you commit!). I run half marathons so getting good exercise in will be no problem (even in Wisconsin weather!). I'm currently training for distance running, so you can expect great exercise for your pet! Whether it's a long meandering sniff-ari or an intense loop around the neighborhood, I would love to know what fits your dog best. As I'm in your home, your instructions are paramount. You know your pet better than anyone, and I am happy to keep their normal routines in place. I like getting to know each animal and their unique personality, and while I *love* giving snuggles and pets, I understand some pets prefer their space.
“Super responsive, took great care of our pups, and sent pics every day! Natalina is incredibly sweet and I look forward to having her stay at our house with our pups in the future!”
About: I’ve always loved dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that means going for a long walk, playing outside, or just keeping them company at home. I’m active and love being outdoors, so I’m especially happy to take dogs on walks and give them plenty of exercise and attention. I’m dependable, communicative, and will treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I’d want someone to give mine. I’m comfortable following specific feeding, walking, and care routines, and I’ll always keep you updated while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time to fit pet care into my week. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the week and on weekends. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and schedule! I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and your home. I’ll follow your instructions closely and keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I’m attentive, responsible, and happy to provide updates and photos so you know your pet is safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention.
“Nowell did a great job house sitting! They hopped in to cover an emergency and were very flexible and communicative. They took excellent care of my dog and 3 cats. Everyone was happy and healthy when I arrived home and our home was in great condition. I would definitely hire Nowell again!”
“Melvin stepped in on very short notice and took great care of my two big dogs. He stayed at the house and left it in great shape when he left. The dogs liked him and were in great shape when I got home. Thanks to Mel for saving the weekend for us.”
About: Former member of UNC-Chapel Hill Puppy Raisers, a student-led organization that works with puppies in partnership with Ears Eyes Nose and Paws of Chapel Hill on their journey to becoming service animals. I’m currently working part time, so very flexible with the times and days that I am available to help out with your cats or dogs! I have no pets currently so full attention will be devoted to your animal! I have grown up with dogs my entire life and feel comfortable handling all sizes and breeds.
“Sarah was so great with Hamm and made sure he received all the attention he needed! It was our first time leaving for the weekend since we got Hamm, and it was a comfort knowing Hamm was well taken care of while we were gone. She made sure to send all the cute pics of Hamm and was great to communicate with. Will definitely be booking with her again!!”
“Eric and Rachel were absolutely amazing with our pups! In fact, we already rebooked them before this first booking was even done because we were so happy with how they were treating our pups and their great communication. We have older dogs and our oldest is 14 with some health issues. We haven’t used a pet sitter since our dogs were much younger. So we were very nervous going into this, but Eric and Rachel took amazing care of our dogs, we’re patient loving with them, and always sent us updates and pictures. They also took great care of our home while they were staying there. They and their dog Lilo all have experience with rescue dogs, and you can see that and how they were able to adapt to the quirks and needs of our older dogs. Would recommend without hesitation!”
“Lauren and Nia were great with our pets and us! This was our first time using pet sitters and they really helped put us at ease through the process. With picture and video updates we knew our dogs and cats were having a good time and being well cared for. Highly recommend using them!”
“We had a great experience with Donna. She kept us up to date on how our dog and cat were doing and took great care of them. Both of our pets are a little tricky- the dog can be a bit reactive on walks, currently has seasonal allergies, and sometimes doesn't want to eat at dinner time, while the cat wants to eat everything and also gets stressed out really easily. Donna handled both of them beautifully, and our pets had a great time under her care.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 778 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Aldens Corners. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Aldens Corners walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Aldens Corners maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Aldens Corners choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
